So, my 5 year old cat, Endora, is very sick. I noticed her starting to lose weight, but by the time I took her in she had gone from her 10lb weight, to 6lbs. She's eating and drinking water, but not as much as she used to. After bloodwork and then some, the vet has come up with the following: There is trouble with her liver, she's dehydrated, and she has jaundice. So they pumped her full of water and gave me 4 different medications to give her for the next 2 weeks. She isn't at the point where we have to force feed her, as we're pulling in various things to feed her. I guess she liked Turduckin, the wet food. I might end up force feeding her a little bit every day, just to be on the safe side. Anyways, I grabbed a copy of the bloodwork they sent me, so I'll post that too, well what's high/low anyway.
If you have any suggestions, experience, comments, what not on this whole situation... that would be fantastic.
At the moment I am absolutely stressed out and worried to no end about her. The Vet did mention that we're giving this antibiotic set 2 weeks before the next blood work. Then, if it gets better we continue the antibiotics, if it doesn't then it's off to an xray/ultrasound. I just want my baby better.
Blood Work:
ALK. Phosphate: 947 (H)
ALT: 400 (H)
AST: 174 (H)
GGT: 12 (H)
Total Bilirubin: 10.4 (H)
Direct Bilirubin: 8.3 (H)
Indirect Bilirubin: 2.1 (H)
MCV: 34 (L)
MCHC 36.7 (H)
Neutrophil: 84.9 (H)
Lymphocytes: 8.7 (L)
Monocytes: 5.1 (H)
Eosinophil: 1.3 (L)
Absolute Lymphocyte: 1061 (L)
Notes state that her SPEC fPL is a 2, which is in normal range, so that it is unlikely pancreatitis.
Also, her T4 is a 1, and is in normal range.
I can provide anything else if you need it.
